August Geoscientist

The August one. It reminds me of a crab trace in sedimentary rocks while doing fieldwork in Ireland, was a really nice trace fossil. We called it the 'snuffle mark', unfortunately an inconsiderate person whacked it to bits, attached for 300 millions years, removed in seconds. Grrr.

  1. Yey! I've been there! Twice!
    And you don't even have to bring your hammer,
    like any good tourist attraction, they have a well stocked gift shop attached ;)
